A Pristine Eco-Conscious, True-Stereo Reverb Optimized for Extreme Ease of Use and Efficiency
In The Footsteps Of A Giant
2CAudio’s Aether is an award-winning, ultimate quality, self-modulating algorithmic reverb, which delivers unprecedented levels of fidelity and programmability. It has been nominated for, and won numerous industry awards, including most recently the 2010 Sound on Sound Annual Award, and the 2010 EM Editor’s Choice award. Its huge list of industry-first advances have made it the go-to reverb of choice by many of the industry’s top engineers and producers.
Breeze is Aether’s pristine eco-conscious cousin. Breeze focuses on simplicity, efficiency, and economy.
Simplicity
It’s a Breeze to use! Literally. Breeze offers an innovative, minimalist GUI design that focuses on instantly communicating the most important preset information to the user, and summarizing this information graphically in two aesthetically pleasing and intuitive graphical displays. Macro controls combine many complex, behind-the-scenes DSP parameters into a beautifully compact set of nine knobs and four sliders. Parameter ranges and scaling are optimized to make it almost impossible to create a bad sounding preset. Signal gain has been meticulously balanced to the point of making the need to adjust the gain control almost obsolete, leaving users with one less thing to worry about and free to focus on more important details. It is quite simply a Breeze to find the perfect settings for any given source material. Efficiency
Pack Light. Travel Far. Feel the Breeze. Breeze has been highly optimized to reduce CPU usage as compared to Aether and other products in the market. Breeze is furthermore designed to intelligently use only as much CPU power as is absolutely required for a given preset, and automatically disables various parts of the algorithm when not required to conserve energy. Breeze also offers an additional “Hi-Lo” switch to further push efficiency into even deeper shades of green. Breeze is the ideal reverb choice for laptop use, and live performance. When used with current top-of-the-line studio workstations, over 500 instances of the plug-in can be run in real-time depending on settings. Economy
Breeze has a modest MSRP of $149.95. All plug-in formats are included at this price.
To make purchasing even more of a Breeze, a special limited-time holiday introduction price of $99.95 is available until the end of the year. This offer expires January 01, 2011. Additional Special Features
Breeze shares some things in common with its older cousin, Aether, but it also has many differences, and brings a few exciting new things to the table that have yet to be implemented in Aether including:
- A new advanced true-stereo mode that differs from anything in Aether
- A new bi-polar Density control that provides the ultimate flexibility ranging from absolute sparsity to almost instantaneous maximal density
- A Contour control to allow users to customize the attack characteristics of, and impart additional timbral variations on, the reverb
- An evolved modulation scheme that offers both lush, larger-than-life, chorus-like, random pitch modulation as well as newly-developed more conservative methods, that are more in line with the behavior of real-world acoustic spaces Supported Formats& Availability
Breeze supports:
VST and RTAS hosts on Windows XP and Windows Vista, and Windows 7 Audio Units, RTAS, and VST hosts running on Mac OSX.4, OSX.5, and OSX.6
Breeze is available in both 32bit and 64bit formats for the Windows VST platform. All other formats are currently 32-bit only, though additional 64-bit formats are in development.
